Frustrated LeBron James leaves home game for Los Angeles Lakers in first half with right ankle injury

LOS ANGELES -- LeBron James exited the Lakers' game against the Atlanta Hawks in the first half on Saturday after Solomon Hill collided with James' right ankle.

James, 36, knocked over a chair in frustration on his way to the locker room. James received X-rays and an MRI on his right ankle after the game, sources told ESPN. The X-ray results came back negative and the MRI results are pending, a source told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Hill was called for a foul with 10:50 remaining in the second quarter when the Hawks' forward fell on James' right ankle while trying to steal the ball.
